QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert VRPACKAGE to USDZ?
Yes - VRPACKAGE converts to USDZ.

Open the package in SimLab Composer and use File > Export to write USDZ. The result works in Apple Quick Look AR with geometry, textures and animation, but the SimLab VR interactivity is not carried over.

Why convert VRPACKAGE to USDZ?

People convert .vrpackage to .USDZ to view or share the 3D models in Apple's AR Quick Look on iPhone, iPad and Mac, which the SimLab container cannot feed directly. USDZ is Apple's zipped USD package and is the standard for placing a model in AR on iOS.

How to convert VRPACKAGE to USDZ

SimLab Composer APP

Open with File > Open, then File > Export and select USDZ (*.usdz) to produce an Apple AR-ready package. Available on Windows and macOS.

SimLab CADVRter APP

Use the stand-alone CADVRter converter to load the SimLab data and export .usdz without the full Composer.

Export GLB then Reality Converter FREE

Export .glb from SimLab, then drop it into Apple's Reality Converter on a Mac and save as .usdz.

Quality & what to watch

  • VR interaction, quizzes and annotations from the package are dropped since USDZ only describes the AR model and its animation.
  • USDZ supports PBR materials but complex SimLab shaders may need simplifying to render correctly in Quick Look.
  • Very dense meshes should be reduced first so the model loads smoothly on mobile AR.

Frequently asked questions

Where do USDZ files open?
They open in Apple Quick Look on iOS, iPadOS and macOS for instant AR viewing, and in some 3D tools that read USD.
Do I need a Mac to make a USDZ?
No, SimLab Composer exports .usdz on Windows too; a Mac is only needed for the Reality Converter fallback route.
Is animation supported in USDZ?
Yes, SimLab's USDZ export supports animation, so keyframed motion can appear in AR, though VR logic does not.
Why not just share the .vrpackage?
The .vrpackage only opens in SimLab apps, whereas USDZ works natively in Apple AR without any SimLab software.
